Creativity

Creativity simply means being able to come up with something new.


Therefore, creative thinking is the ability to consider something – a conflict
between employees, a data set, a group project – in a new way. Employers
in all industries want employees who can think creatively and bring new
perspectives to the workplace.

It's important to share your creative thinking skills with prospective


employers. Be sure to highlight in your job applications your ability to think
creatively. To do this, you first need to recognize your own creativity.

What is Creative Thinking?

Creative thinking means looking at something in a new way.

Creative people have the ability to devise new ways to carry out tasks, solve
problems, and meet challenges. They bring a fresh, and sometimes
unorthodox, perspective to their work. This way of thinking can help
departments and organizations move in more productive directions. For
these reasons, they are extremely valuable to a company.

Creative thinking skills are definitely not just for ‘creative types’ like artists
and musicians. Everyone can benefit from creative thinking from time to
time.

Some people are naturally more creative than others, but creative thinking
ability can be strengthened with practice.

You can develop creative thinking skills by solving riddles, being aware of
your assumptions, and through play. Play connotes anything unstructured
and relaxing, such as walking or daydreaming
What are creative thinking skills?

Creative thinking is the ability to invent and/or create something new: be


that a concept, a solution, a method, a work of art, or an actual, physical
device. Creative thinking is based on looking at things in a new way that
hasn’t previously been considered. That’s why it’s often described as
“thinking outside the box.”

The Best Creative Skills: Examples

 Problem Solving
 Creative Writing
 Open-Mindedness
 Analysis
 Communication
 Active Listening
 Sales and Marketing
 Graphic Design
 Leadership

Two terms that people often conflate are creative and critical thinking
skills. But these are not the same.

 Creative thinking means you can come up with new ways to think
about the surrounding world in order to make something innovative.
 Critical thinking can be described as “thinking about thinking:” it
means you can understand the way your perception works in order
to identify flaws in your reasoning and avoid biases.
